NearSpeak Wins in Lumia Geek 8-Week Challenge

The jury selected the NearSpeak app as one of the winners in the Windows Phone 8: Lumia Geek 8-Week Challenge! Great news, and we’re very proud!

This also means that we’ll be able to demonstrate the app at this year’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. More details to follow soon.

App development started at last year’s Wowzapp Hackaton together with Bernhard Aufreiter from Softrox. We’re currently planning the next big update, which will greatly extend the available features of the app.
